They look amazing. I’d like this sort of thing but just the main players. Warrior, Hogan, Mach, etc.

I would like an homage to the Hasbro line in the Ultimate Edition Line, but I would want them to be in the same body molds used already by Mattel for all Ultimates, these would look out of place with other figures from Mattel. This. Those figures in op are ugly. I wouldn't say they're ugly, they just would look out of place with other Mattel figures. But I would definitely love an homage Hasbro line from Mattel. I grew up on the Hasbros, they are still my favorite wrestling figure line, so it would be nice to get something for that line like the Coliseum Collection line. It would also be a good chance to get out some figures from the Hasbro Line that have already been released by Mattel, but are kind of expensive, like the RSC Macho King: Mattel can release the same exact figure, except as in Ultimate form, which is Savage's attire from Survivor Series 1989, but they can also throw in a set of gold knee pads to make it like his Hasbro figure:     So, basically, it would be the same figure as the RSC Exclusive, but in Ultimate Edition figure form (that way it's not a straight re-release), and it comes with two sets of kneepads, purple (to match Macho's actual match look) and gold (to pay homage to and match the Hasbro figure). It could also be a way to get out new looks of wrestlers like Ultimate Warrior's Hasbro series 2 figure. The attire is basically the same as his Survivor Series 1989 attire, except like the Savage figure above, the kneepads are different. In the match, Warrior wore white kneepads, on the figure they are green. They can do the same thing with this figure like I mentioned above with the Savage figure, release the figure in the all-white attire to match his Survivor Series 1989 look, but also include an extra set of green kneepads to pay homage to his Hasbro figure look:   |

Hi all, what would your thoughts be on a Hasbro inspired Ultimate Edition line alongside Coliseum Collection? I recently mocked up some customs based on an Ax Battler figure to give a good indication of what it could look like. Here’s Warrior:   How do these Ax Battler figures compare to Ultimates scalewise? Do they fit? Those Warriors look fantastic! |

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if the next Walmarts exclusive is a Hasbro inspired line but as elites. Especially if they’re sticking with the limited run with a theme model they have done with their last couple exclusives. But what would they call it? Titan Collection?

Ax Battler is about 7 3/4 inches tall so he'll definitely be taller than any UE and possibly too thick as well since Storm figures tend to be proportioned on the thicker side. |

Titan Collection? i'm not sure if there would be an issue with using the word federation, but "the federation years collection" could be a good name. i've seen those few year between the golden era and new generation referred to as the federation years, so it could work |

They’ll probably stick with their branding for Hasbros and just call it “The Retro Collection” |

Your point about Warrior got me thinking, though, that they probably meant to (or it would have made sense) to do white for the knee pads based on the wrist bands and other tassels. Seems like it should all be white gear with green and red/pink tassels. I actually always thought it was till your post haha |
